| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Delay time change | Time between an electric impulse and 10% of the contraction of the muscle that is being excited with an electric impulse, using an electromyography test (miliseconds). | 4 minutes before the intervention, 5 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Contraction time change | Time between 10% and 90% of the contraction of the muscle that is being excited with an electric impulse, using an electromyography test (miliseconds). | 4 minutes before the intervention, 5 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Sustain time change | time between 50% of the contraction and 50% of the relaxation of the muscle after being impulsed with an electric impulse, using an electromyography test (miliseconds). | 4 minutes before the intervention, 5 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Relaxation time change | time between 90% and 50% of the relaxation of the muscle after being impulsed with an electric impulse, using an electromyography test (miliseconds). | 4 minutes before the intervention, 5 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Maximal displacement change | Maximal displacement of the muscle after being excited with an electric impulse, using an electromyography test (miliseconds). | 4 minutes before the intervention, 5 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Stiffness change | Resistance to an external force that deforms its initial shape, using a "Myoton" (Newtons/metre). |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Gastrocnemious strength change | Isometric strength of the gastrocnemious muscles using a handheld dynamometer "microFET 2" (newtons). | 8 minutes before the intervention, 1 minute after the intervention and 30 minutes later |

| 2 minutes before the intervention, 7 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Elasticity change | Capacity to recover its initial shape after the removal of the external force that lead to its deformation, using a "Myoton" (logarithmic decrement of a tissue's natural oscillation). | 2 minutes before the intervention, 7 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
| Relaxation change | Time for a muscle to recover its shape from deformation after the removal of an external force, using a "Myoton" (miliseconds). | 2 minutes before the intervention, 7 minutes after the intervention and 30 minutes later |
